| Publisher Description: Stalin's Russian Winter War against Finland, and his World War II campaigns on Nazi Germany's eastern front (around Kiev, Lenningrad, Moscow, Kharkov, Stalingrad, Kursk, Byelorussia, the Balkans, East Prussia, Warsaw, Hungary, and Berlin) constitute the largest land war in world history in terms of the number of troops engaged, and is also impressive in terms of the vast distances fought over. Russia took 20 million military and 20 million civilian casualties during a brutal four year war, and the Germans lost over 2 million military and 2 million civilian casualties as well. Bolt Action allows gamers to recreate a small part of this titanic struggle on the table-top. |
